Good morning all Flickroonies and here is a scene of intense industry and an issue of location for you from Irelands oldest city. Waterford is a beautiful, ancient and historic city and the traders there have a long history of innovation and style. Hearnes are no exception and this shot shows their tailors at work. Who can help us to put this in the correct location????
Niall McAuley said:
Here in the archive is Hearne's tailor shop window, at number 64.

Niall McAuley Very good Niall but 64 what? The Quay or Georges Street???
Niall McAuley said:
Both! Looking at the OSI site at GeoHive, Number 64 on Merchant's Quay (now Meagher's Quay) stretched right back to George's Street behind. Today the site is split between the Granville Hotel on the Quay and a shopping centre on George's street, but back in the day, it was one site.

The word Overseer comes to mind for those standing up? The workers all seem to be reasonably well dressed, perhaps as a perk of the job they were able to make a suit for themselves? Is there a status attaching to the hats that can be seen in the photo. Ps - the note feature you talked about last week is sorely missed

I remember Denny sausages when I was young - they were nice. Are they still sold under the Denny brandname? Stuart.

A reaper, I suppose you'd call it. There's a v similar one shown here more recently, in Mayo www.mayovintage.org/AnnualFieldDay.html

A horse-drawn reciprocating-blade mower.

Needless to say the photograph is posed and the photographer nearly got it perfect.

A bucolic idyll, if ever I saw one.
